We're not a band........ We're an artistic collaboration.



Ok, so my new musical venture has begun. It all started tonight. Gavin, Mark G from media play, and I got together tonight and we started throwing some ideas off one another. Gavin and I can really keep up with each other which is awesome when you first sit down to play music with people. We really started to throw out some great stuff. Mark has some great ideas for performance and such to, which I'm all for. It's definately gonna be a while before you see us play anywhere because we are gonna perfect everything before anyone sees us. We just don't wanna be another one of those bands that makes three songs and says "Ok now lets go play them for everybody." We're looking for something more than that. We're here for an experience, but I dread using the word experience though because that word gets over used so much when it comes to music. I'd also like to avoid the word project because it's kind of like an art project, but once again the word gets overused. So we'll just go with artisitic collaboration and leave it at that. our style goes against the norm of the current rock, and it's exactly what I'm looking for. It should be great stuff!! I'm really looking forward to playing again, I love making music, It's something I've missed ever since silly Bridget had to go off and get married. (Joe: Insert joke here about kicking Brdget out of bed...thank you).

People......Once again able to clear up my theory......Most People Are As Dumb As A Rock.


Ok, so I'm at working minding my own when I over hear a conversation between one of my fellow employees and a customer. This customer was trying to convince the employee that when you buy a video game disc, the only thing that is on the disc is a pin number. And when you put the disc into your gaming console, a satellite beams the game to your TV, ya know like when your watching normal TV. All I could do was just look at this poor poor idiot and feel sorry for how stupid he his. He's probably lucky he didn't talk to me because I'd hit him in the head with a tack hammer because he's a retard.

Ahh people.....Getting stupider every year. I just can't wait till my sister has kids...Yeah, if they're anything like her, they should be book smart, but yet stupid as hell at the same time, yes it's a paradox, I know, but it's true.

Do I listen to Pop Music because I'm miserable? Or am I miserable because I listen to Pop Music?

Hmm, good question. As a quote from the movie "High Fidelity" It raises many many thoughts in my head. For one, I do listen to Pop music, it is my little taste of sin. But, as far as I'm concerned, it depresses me nonetheless.

Due to the internet downloaders, yes me included, the music industry won't change the music. Every music company that matters, will only keep signing the same crappy bands that all sound alike. So we are stuck with the same shit on the radio, regergitating what the bands of the late 90's came up with and keep doing the same thing, over and over. To think that some day a band will be inspired by a smile empty soul album and base there music after that. But really it'll be bases off any rock band in our era. Same thing can be said about any pop artist or any rap artist. The music industry needs a swift kick in the ass, something different. Arrgh!! Just thinking about it makes my head hurt. Alright I'm done.

well, I don't know. I think my Uncle is dying. He had 3 heart attacks in two days and right now the only thing keeping him living is a baloon pump. They've tried to take him off of it but his body can't survive without it right now. Their thinking about replacing his heart, but the chances of him living through that aren't good. Who knows, he's escaped death at least 5 times so far in life so maybe now will be another time.

On a lighter note, I purchased the Mariachi trilogy yesterday. I'm watching the the first movie right now, "El Mariachi." It's all in spanish so I have to read the subtitles. But it's a really good movie. I just thank God that the rest of the movies aren't in spanish. But I think I could watch it without the subtitles and still figure out what's going on. It's just one of those movies.

On another note. I haven't talked on this site like I used to for a while. Not every line is about who I don't wanna write about anymore. Don't get me wrong, I still think about everything all the time. But I've said all that can be said here. So, what's done is done. And I'm coming to realize I have great friends, but not just a group of friends like I used to have, I have a few groups of friends, and I think I like it that way. It's good times. Latte

Alrighty Then.

Ok, school has started again. And I'm at SVSU. I like it alot more then I liked Delta. The math classes are messed up like everyone said, but my computer class is super easy. All I have to do is type up stupid assignments out of the book, and there are only 4 classes that I'm required to go too. Other than that It can all be done at home. So that's freaking awesome.

On to more news. I just found this out so don't get mad at me if I didn't tell you yet. But one of my old best friends is getting married!! And he goes by the name of Jake Griffus. Congrats Jake that's freakin awesome! And even more news, he's gonna have 3 best men. A little odd yes, but it's still cool. Oh, and Joe and I are 2 of the best men. Man, now I have to start planning a kick ass bachelor party....hmmmm, wonder whatever happened to that girl in the purple shirt we saw oh so long ago??......oh nevermind. Alright, I'm off to school to learn stuff. I'll be back Biotches.

Alright, I know it's been over a week, since I updated. And since I'm like one of the only people that haven't done a New Year's post,

Happy Belated New Year!

Since I didn't say it before. Ok, let's look at 2003. For me 2003 was more of a year of growing than anything else. I had to do a lot of stuff on my own and figure out my place in the world. I can safely say that the events that ended 2002 really but a damper on my 2003, because I was continually bothered by everything that happened in 2002. So I really couldn't enjoy 2003 as much as I would've wanted. I mean, a lot of great things came out of 2003, like DDR day and me finally becoming full time at work, which I don't even know if I want anymore because I really just wanna finish school, and own my own business. I know that's what I really wanna do now. I have this thing about control and logic and as much as I've learned from Media Play, I know the reasons they're losing money, is because there's no Captain on the boat, but there are a lot of first mates all trying to drive at once. Which means, they're retarded!!!

But, the outlook on 2004 is looking pretty good. Things of the past aren't bothering me as much as I let them before, my sister is getting married, which should be a trainwreck to look forward to as I'll be wasted and not caring, while grabbing the microphone at the wedding and yelling "Lisa!!!! hey!!! You're Not Really My Sister!!!! But I love Ya, you crazy bitch!!!!!!" all done in a drunken stooper. Which will probably get me kicked out of my sister's wedding, but hey, at least I'll have a good time.

Hey, I'll see ya all around, have a great 2004!
